    I've been a bit busy to visit as much as I'd like of late but I have been enjoying glimpses of the bright spring colours of your most recent images as they've passed through my RSS reader! I particularly like the effect of these blossoms against the soft, blurred tones of the white church steeple.

    So pretty! Those colors are amazing and I don't think you could ask for a choice of depth of field. :)

    I thought this looked familiar! Today I again pulled this magazine out of our car's door pocket to check what we need to still see before we return to Minnesota. What a delightful surprise to realize that I "know" the photographer of this wonderful photograph! Great photo to represent your work and this great city!
